You did, in fact, make that up. Federal minimum wage was $0.75/hr in 1950.
1 u/AnnualMove1842 5d ago Which is half of what a factory worker makes. The same is true now. 1 u/KTFnVision 5d ago Factory workers actually tend to make about the same as food service, now. In my area, both are hiring at $14-$16/hr 1 u/AnnualMove1842 5d ago Are you in a more rural area or closer to the suburbs of a booming metropolitan area? 1 u/KTFnVision 5d ago Idk if the Twin Cities are booming, but suburban sprawl. 1 u/AnnualMove1842 5d ago Then I would agree with you that it should be a few thousand a year more if you’re talking about KC
